    Have uninstalled the utility but none of the Activation services are working - SPP Protection Service, Windows Activation Technologies and Software Protection.

    This is what I am still witnessing the - System Properties.

    Windows activation
    Status Not Available
    Product ID: Not Available

    What do you mean by Delete the scheduled task?

    Having a problem folks. Have used the software for a while without any problems, however recently it starting randomly giving me notification about windows not being genuine. Each time was able to install and rectify the problem. However today, have tried uninstalling and then reinstalling many times, the process seems to go Ok but I get the not genuine notification. Also I get 0 rearms left even after reinstalling the programs. I am using Windows 7 64 bit. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    If you read the help, doesn't say to choose rearm when you have 0 rearms left?

    Thanks for your prompt reply. I actually have unistalled and reinstalled few time with the same results and what I wanted to say was that usually after the reinstalling you get rearms again, but this is not happening.

    Thanks for all the help.

    I was wrong. The help - which I now have looked up - says choose rearm if the license status is notification. Did you try that? Sounds to fit rather well with 0 rearms left.

    Since there are no rearms left, it does not allow me to rearm.

    One other thing is the when I reinstall, it goes to recovery then as it restarts it asks me for windows keys, which I ignore, then it gives me warning that that I have been a victim of scam.

    Thanks

    Then do a repair install from a clean source.

    All the services are running but when i try to enter WHS 2011 (Genuine) Retail Key it responds with the following error message.
    The Product key you have entered appears to be invalid please re-enter Windows Home Server 2011 product key. My client used WHS 2011 CRBS Edition.

    Any help here would be appreciated. I have tried the WHS 2011 OEM:SLP Dell Key still doesn't work.

    The CRBS edition probably contained somekind of 'activation' hack the user applied after installation, reading the nfo this might be trilogy of something based on the same technique trilogy uses
    the iso image seems to be untouched though, so re-installation seems to be a (and maybe the only) solution

    Oops i thought the key is from Dell. Misread :) but doing repair is very similar to re-installation which will make me to loose the programs other basic settings.

    Read the link in Tito's post #2288, right about yours. The link he gave "a clickable link" to information about a "repair installation" which will tell you exactly what it will change and what it won't change.

    It is the most likely method of fixing you current issue without reinstalling "everything". It does not require you to reinstall everything or reset "all" the settings. You will have to reset some, but it is the most effective method for what you have described.

    Regards,

    Hi guys.

    I have used this application for a while, and it appears to work perfectly. So a big thanks goes out to the creator :)

    There is just one thing. I know that I'm supposed to uninstall and then reinstall it when I have zero rearms left. I simply can't remember how many rearms I have used.
    What happens if I reinstall it after, lets say, two rearms? Will it just start over, or does that somehow mess it up?

    This is probably a really stupid question, but I would rather ask than take any chances.
